Virtual memory errors..

What is up this time??

For at least a month I have been getting Virtual Memory Low errors and within moments SL crashes and I have to do a complete reboot of my system. Many times this causes a check disk on entry to my desk top again. Of course this just makes my problem escalate where I can't log out period without crashing and I have to do a complete uninstall and re-install of sl again to be able to log properly again. [not enough memory to even log out as well]

I spend hours upon hours in SL [yeah, no life] and often I have to do a system reboot because of lagging issues and usually fine when I return. This past week I have had this error numerous times a day so its getting worse. [Low Memory] I thought it was just me and my system just is about to die but it isn't. I am finding many many others now having the same issue and its only been the last month that its started. I can tell just moments before getting is warning because textures begin to turn white. White, not grey as if it was rezzing.

how much hard disk space do you have free

sounds a lot like what i am seeing.
I now can only be on for maybe 2 hours at a time before it crashes.
my puter is only 6mo old and has plenty of free disk space. I even upped the virtual memory from auto controlled to 3gig fixed and no change.
when i look at SL on my task manager it starts out at maybe 600 - 700mb but after playing for a while keeps going up to almost 2gig.
and this is with graphisc set to low.

Upping disk space didn't matter. I still crash every couple of hours. If I totally reboot before I get the virtual memory full errors I am ok to go again. If this was just happening to me, I'd would say it's my pc and try to remedy something to my own hardware, BUT, its not just me its happening to a lot of other people too and only within the last month. So far we haven't been able to figure the common factor between each of us. I was hoping others were having the problem and fixed it or had it, and found a fix or knew what the problem is. When it happens I can't even log out to reboot, not enough memory to even log out and I end up with more problems. I have already corrupted my log out files a few times and had to delete sl and do a complete reinstall. Same also for the others.

With virtual memory it's best to set the "Initial size" and "Maximum size" to the same value. This improves performance a little. This also rules out low diskspace issues because the room taken up by the page file is fixed at all times. Sounds like you have a bad memory leak somewhere - worth digging around the JIRA website because plenty of others have experienced memory leaks in the past. Also worth listing as much info about your system/SL settings/version to see you have anything in common with others who experience this recently.
